Jets QB Michael Vick is paying $10,000 to wear No. 1

When it comes to jersey numbers, apparently Michael Vick likes to spend money, but he doesn't like taking advice.

The new Jets quarterback announced on May 2 that he's going to wear No. 1 in New York, but it's not going to come cheap. Vick's publicist announced on Monday that the quarterback will be paying $10,000 to wear the number that's being sold by Jets punter Ryan Quigley.

However, there's one catch: The $10,000 is being donated to charity.

"I looked at the available numbers and thought I would go with No. 8 for my new start with the Jets. It just didn't look right. I didn't feel right," Vick said in a statement, via NJ.com. "I started talking with Ryan about No. 1. I think it's great that Ryan was willing to change as long as it was for a good cause. I loved his idea."

Quigley's only scheduled to make $495,000 in 2014, so why in the world would he not take the $10,000 for himself you ask? Because he's a nice guy.

"Most of the time in the NFL if a veteran requests your number, you work out a financial agreement between the two players," Quigley said. "I was not interested in the money for myself. I wanted to find a way to help some others."
